As the Chief Executive Officer with AIM WA, my overarching responsibility lies in the development and execution of the AIM WA strategic plan, namely, that of maintaining its position as an educational trailblazer in the areas of leadership, management, and workplace excellence.

I am a former academic turned social trends and workplace specialist, Board director, keynote speaker, newspaper columnist, and most importantly, Chief Executive Officer of the Australian Institute of Management in Western Australia (AIM WA).

My passion is inspiring better workplaces.  I like to ignite discussions around workplace themes and topics, and I use my column in Perth’s The Sunday Times – called “Workplace Matters” – to get conversations started right here on LinkedIn.

I also have an interest in what’s trending in our non-work lives too, so you’ll see that I post pieces on here about various social affairs topics.

And, if you happen to follow what happens in the higher education sector, you might be interested in some of my Business News’ Education pieces which I regularly publish here too.

For me LinkedIn is all about having conversations.  So feel free to follow me, and join the chat.

I am a transformational leader focussing on strategic planning, change management and innovation, who has the same passion and energy for learning, work and life that I had as a graduate. 

My biggest learning in life is ‘to err is to be human’ and that setbacks should be used as learning opportunities to grow. Empathy is more important than judgement. 

I have worked and led in schools, authored education books, led professional associations, consulted freely to the public and private education sectors, served on education boards, worked in international education and consulted for an IT Start-Up. 

It has been my privilege to educate thousands of students, to watch them ‘grow from within’ and to hear about their successes in person or via LinkedIn. 

I am currently freelancing as a consultant. I am also studying to be a Certified Mindfulness Practitioner (Levels 1, 11, 111 and Masters) and am on my own journey of self discovery, whilst also helping others to be their ‘best selves’ through mindfulness and meditation. 

I am interested in new opportunities and using my transferable skills to work in new roles and in different sectors. 

I invite you to contact me on line so that we can catch up in person or virtually 1:1 and start communicating!
